I got two Audiobahn 12" subs off of Ebay in 2002. Although I've only had one going about ten years of that time, they both still crush it. I have the same amp the whole time too but that's a Rockford.
Well for 79 bucks you cant expect much. It did so close to rated id agree thats a pass. I just wish they would stop with the max output crap. Dont they realize we have you to show us the truth? Great vid as always D! Thank you!
I am a wittness of their product. I wanted to buy a 15” kicker L7 Solo recent model but i went for the Rockseries 15” T-Rex. I put it on a small square shaped ported enclosure and my great surprise was that i created deep load bass!!! It even sounded louder than 2 12”s pioneer champion series on a ported enclosure to their size! Such a magnificent cheap underrated brand in mexico. I truly recommend thier audio 👏🏼
That $79 amp was likely pulling 117+ amps (at 14.12 volts) during that last test! No wonder it gets hotter than a sidewalk in Texas. Great demo/dyno run/video (as always!)
Big D... Back in the day, we would DREAM of having an amp that put out nearly 1000 watts (or more). $79 for a sub amp? It bumps; the low ohm tests didn't let out the magic smoke. If you were on a tight budget, had a Kicker sub in a box and needed something cheap to drive it - why not? $79 is a trip to Chili's for 4 these days. Let this thing murder a sub for a while...
My buddy Marc had a big two channel class AB Audiobahn amp hooked up to a couple of Audiobahn 10s in a small ported box that he built for the back of his Wrangler. That system was impressive. It hurt me while sitting in the passenger seat. It disturbed my breathing. Lol I had to get out. When I got out, I could see the windows moving like a damn passive radiator. The rubber seals around the glass were holding on somehow. Lol I told him to keep a window rolled down. Haha I was so impressed that I picked up a couple 12s and a class D mono block amp from Audiobahn for my old Suburban. It didn't sound as good or loud as his system though.
For fun as a side job I used to do car stereo installation. A lot of my customers like the LOOK of Audiobahn. I never heard one Audiobahn system that sounded good. No matter how much money was invested and no matter how much time was put into the installation. The equipment is pure garbage. Your friend probably had the real equipment hiding. The Audiobahn was strictly for show as usual. Looks good, sounds like shit.
My buddy was a huge audiobahn fan back in da day.... Had a big chrome flame series amp, and 2 12" subs in an extended cab ranger, the box barely fit... It was a fun truck to cruise around in and get a back massage from those subs.
@@volvo09In my late teenage years my best friend had a black Acura Rsx Type S. He had a flame series amp and a pair of the 12 inch subs too. Our local audio store was named Custom Enclosures and they built a really nice custom box for the hatch on his Rsx that had the subs inverted so you could see the flames on the subs. It was one of the best looking setups I've ever seen. The fastest I've ever been in a vehicle was also in that Rsx. I did all of the work on the engine. We managed to hit 164 mph in 5th gear. It was a 6 speed so it still had a little left in the tank. You could feel the rear tires trying to lift so we never pushed it that far again. Sadly my buddy ended up getting beat to death at a party a year or two after our high speed test run. Your comment made me think of him and I always smile when I do because he was such a fun and goofy dude to be around. Sorry for the Ted Talk but I hope you enjoyed it.
Trash pawnshop junk.. don't even bother . The owner is a alleged drug lord that uses the amps and packaging to confiscate drugs into countries.. no exaggeration.. look it up.. you but this junk you are helping the drug Lords..
I just pulled a pair of Audiobahn amps and an Alum-10 sub out of my Corvette - lots of 2003 shiny chrome goodness! If you have any interest in testing an A1502DP let me know and I'll USPS it to you. Replaced with Down4Sound JP amps and so far am loving them. Great content as always, thanks!
Shocking. However when I was Building Systems years ago. There was a young kid down the block that built his system using Audiobahn flame series. Everything was chromed-out. The amplifiers, The woofers, every piece of equipment in the car was Audiobahn. Everything was professionally installed, he basically built a car for competition Or show. It was a New Mazda Protege looked great. Got inside the vehicle to give it a listen. I was very disappointed. I never said anything to this kid I didn't want to hurt his feelings. With all the money he invested, it did look fantastic, it sounded like absolute crap. After that day that was a brand that I never even considered. I didn't do a fine-tooth examination I was just surprised by the lack of sound. My system looked like an amateur assembled it. Sounded fantastic. Watching this video brought back those memories.
Yeah, I had Infinity Kappa 6x9's (the green ones) in 1999 and they got water in them and they gave up the ghost. I went to a car audio shop that sold me Audiobahn 6x9's and the capacitors blew up all over my leg twice and ruined two pairs of pants. Oil and yellow fibers everywhere. After that I always considered them a brand I stayed away from.
They had some quality stuff…but you had to wade thru the junk and know what was good. When they first really hit the market hard, they were a lot better….they got cheap the longer they were in business.

@@thomaspepera2711 Interesting to know after that one experience, I had access to so much audio equipment it was very easy just to stay away from some brands.
I used to have a pie of massive audio woofers in my c10. First stereo I ever had installed. Had a pair of massive components, Fujitsu ten eclipse head unit, and Alpine amp. Loved that setup. Well balanced.
Fujitsu ten / eclipse was making some REALLY quality stuff in the 90s my 1999 eclipse 3640 amp is pure electrical porn on the inside..... and is STILL working
@@kainhall yea I totally agree. Unfortunately mine ended up taking a dump, but back then I didn’t have much money and paid a good bit and it was refurbished. Swapped to a single din DVD head unit with 3” display from JVC and likes that. It was a chameleon unit so pretty much disappeared in my c10 cause I had it illuminate on the prox sensor.
Lol, I remember in 1995 or so I had a Profile California CA1200 2 channel that seemed to be 3 feet long. Made 300w per channel. It's really something how these small form factor amps are putting out such big power.
I had some Auduobahn 10s back in the day when they were still decent. Had 2000 watts in the cab of a S10. Hit hard enough to make your heart beat funny.
I'm about to run two 12" L7rs in a sealed enclosure with my mrv 1507! I'm doing 2 ohms with mine. Willston audio labs tested this amp, and at 2 ohms it puts out 1200 watts rms!!!
A cheap system custom built correctly would sound a lot better than an expensive system in a generic setup. It's more than the typical: more power = louder.
Thats actually a great idea. Im gonna start using them in my straight razor collection. The high carbon steel will rust if it so much as hears the word "humidity" thanks👍
Last Audiobahn amp I had back in the 2000's would CONSTANTLY blow fuses. I still have my first Audiobahn sub, hooked up to my surround sound for a little extra bass
Audiobahn was specifically designed to look great All Chrome with the flames and the giant magnets I never heard one Audiobahn setup that sounded half as good as my Kicker that I installed myself. Strictly for looks.
I have one of those old amps you pictured... 1 Chanel is out. Can you repair it? I had/HAVE A custom built ported box with 4 12 audio Bahn in a 93 road master estate wagon and it was wicked. For real. I'm 61 and still enjoy the stuff. You're a real boom master
This is crazy I remember when Audiobahn used to be the shit. They had a sister brand. I think it was Digital Audio their stuff used to be so cool to me. My best friends older brother had a 94 Probe, and his homeboy had a 98 cav🎉😢alier. The probe had the black out JVC deck man that thing was so cool wish I could remember the highs, but they were sweet. 2 12in audiobahn subs in a sealed box and like 600 watt profile amp it was white and the audiobahn subs were black and purple and Quan with the Cavalier had 3 10 digital audios black/red and a nasty Precision power amp and infinity highs and I believe it was a Pioneer deck. Mannnnn, both cars sounded good, but the cavalier was crazy. They were freshmen in college and were freshmen in😮 high school, so you could imagine our faces when we got to ride with them. This was like 99 or 2000 long live old school audio long live Big D
for my starter setup before getting a 5K monoblock amp. I had a "Dual" 300 Watt little square amp that was black and chrome from walmart. Only to power my SPL SP15 I had back before they discontinued them. Was rated dual 2 ohm and could be wired down to 1 ohm. I wired it up to 4ohm and bridged to this little 300 watt amp and the results were impressive! It was still really loud for what it was on 300 watts bridged. But that amp got SUPER hot. It was very impressive for a walmart amp back in 2012 - 2013.
Listening to the souds coming from vw golf, civic's, bmw 3 series etc. An $80,- Amp with two Wish speakers is the set to have. It has to sound like a frequency test. If it is getting loose, you'll hear it.
Still have an Audiobahn amp that works! It's a 4 channel flame series. I used it up until recently when I replaced it with the Recoil amps. I amp impressed with Recoil BTW! I have a mono block and a 4 channel.
So just to start with Audobon is still a very good quality set up to buy however, it tells you on the box and everywhere else that you need to install some sort of ventilation or a fan to keep the amp cool and back in the day you had to put fans on every amp you bought it would get hot and go into protection mode. I have no problem on cost me $150 that is throwing out 1000 Watts.
Iused to be one of those guys who knew nothing of ohm loads and just a few years ago i realized, i really used to run my old pyramid amps on 1 ohm or less because everything was wire parallel for me..😅
Holy 💩 Audiobahn is still in business? Can’t believe it made rated power and then some to boot. I’d say that’s a steal for 79 bucks but with a choke that gets that hot, I don’t see it being very reliable.
Hey Big D love your videos bud. Would you by any chance have a list of all the amps you test on a spreadsheet somewhere? I would love to know which amps reach their rated power and at what efficiency. Keep up the great the work.
@@RealPivotTV yes but would be really useful for comparing amp performance. You can filter the info in all sorts of useful ways too. Plus it would be a great way of backing up information other then in video format.
I was a big fan of Audiobahn back in the early 2000s i had 2 12s 800w (i think) powered by........ The original JL 500. 1 monoblock. had that in a hatchback back and it was Stuuuuupid loud.
I was one of the first people around my way to discover massive audio when everybody else was paying top dollar for Sundown not that these methods are cheap but they're buying Sundown and the other company that are totally totally outrageously priced I'm sure they're good I think they're called Death bounce or something but I have the Sumo XL I've had the angry hippos and I have a shitload of massive Subs in my basement they hit ridiculously hard even the entry level I believe they were 1250 max 750 RMS apiece or even less than that I had just two tens at one point and they hit just as hard as my JL Audio W3 the massive models that I had our the best budget banger on my opinion
I remember audiobaun from back in the day had 2 flame 12s inverted with the flame amp then the amp blew so I got an alpine v12 amp and they blew so I got 2 15 inch kickers
I remember buying a pair of Flame Q's instead of a pair of Rockford Fosgate HX2 Power 12's. Biggest regret of my life and I broke my back and lost an arm!

Your Dyno vids along with all the other dyno vids all over RUclips have made a huge difference with manufacturers thinking twice about listing bs power ratings 🙌🏼
I don't think they really care?
Lol, You know good and manufacturers are taking notice to Big D’s video’s 😂
@@yourmom-ii8ep They really don't
even if they bs sometime it's still a very good deal first thing to do is to look at the fuse rating = efficiency depending on the class of the amp.
The dyno recreates a perfect stable current situation at 14.4 something that will never exist in your installation. You have to be realistic.

Don’t you fentanyl sprinkles?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m so confused someone explain
@@sirreal2290 ALLEGEDLY the company was bought out, went bankrupt because it was connected with drug trafficking
it sucks that once you post these videos that shows what the amp is actually like, it either gets removed from amazon or the price jumps up.
either way keep up the good work, you help a lot!
They don’t get removed they sell out
Yeah, moman is right, they sell out fast if they are decent.
I think this is a honest review but most RUclips channels that receive high traffic gets corporate cash to basically promote the company products which sell. I would like to see RUclips start requiring some filtering for sponsorship or affiliate RUclips channels versus ones that are completely independent along with certifications and qualifications these idiots are trying things that people see on RUclips and dying or people on RUclips copying people on RUclips who copy people on RUclips and all of its wrong
Again.....
You're bringing back memories rocking "3 kinds of bass" by Bass Outlaws 😊

I will say of the cheap $ amps this one looks pretty good! Thanks Big D!
I am a wittness of their product.
I wanted to buy a 15” kicker L7 Solo recent model but i went for the Rockseries 15” T-Rex.
I put it on a small square shaped ported enclosure and my great surprise was that i created deep load bass!!!
It even sounded louder than 2 12”s pioneer champion series on a ported enclosure to their size!
Such a magnificent cheap underrated brand in mexico.
I truly recommend thier audio 👏🏼
Looks god LOL
That $79 amp was likely pulling 117+ amps (at 14.12 volts) during that last test! No wonder it gets hotter than a sidewalk in Texas. Great demo/dyno run/video (as always!)
Yeah, she's a little hungry but man kept on going like the Energizer Bunny!
@@wal 🐰 🥁 hope Audiobahn sticks around... competition brings out the best 👍😎
I live in Houston. Trust me that amp doesn’t get hotter than a sidewalk here.
Fix for that?
I was just thinking about audiobahn. My flame Q's used to do the job for me.
I remember audio bahn. I used to love their speakers and subs

Haha, love the white glove included. Pretty cool. I like the amp. Cool looking, also. Great watch again! Thank you for making the video, as always.
The 2300 HTC was one of the best Amps along with the Immortal Series Subs
Lol, I remember in 1995 or so I had a Profile California CA1200 2 channel that seemed to be 3 feet long. Made 300w per channel. It's really something how these small form factor amps are putting out such big power.
I’m still rocking two 12” High Excursion Audiobahn subwoofers and they hit just as good as new from over 10 years ago
yup. well ,.i had 2 12 high excursion subs. 800w ? i don't remember. My system was stupid loud, great range on low end
unintentionally hilarious video. that's what separates you bud! keep up the good work. shout out to the other audio channels who r killin it as well
Dude the Allen key dad jokes be killin me 😂😂
I usually install, a small fan underneath at vents and connect to ground and remote.... On my amps.. Great video Big Deez
yes and active cooling approach would be good but I was also running it at 1/2 ohm on the sub so surely that impacted the amount of heat experienced
Not bad for the youngsters on a budget, I was surprised! Another great review my friend!
I had some Auduobahn 10s back in the day when they were still decent. Had 2000 watts in the cab of a S10. Hit hard enough to make your heart beat funny.
I miss the days of compact pickups.
An S10 with subs was awesome.

Last Audiobahn amp I had back in the 2000's would CONSTANTLY blow fuses. I still have my first Audiobahn sub, hooked up to my surround sound for a little extra bass

Strictly for looks.

Perfectly awesome amp and better than ones ive seen on the market, now only thing to see is if it puts out Good sound
If you have to ask about audiobahn products. I'm just going on the impression, you haven't been in audio that long.
For $80 smoking along at half an ohm I'm not worried about the warranty😅
Would you really want to be in their database anyway with who likely owns the brand now? ;)
@@kjata77 a good point. But unless they're planning on sourcing a kidney from me then not going to get much I'm so broke I can barely pay attention...
@BlueDinnie Some Mexican cartels do that too, not exclusive to Asia anymore of course. ;)
@@kjata77 lol
Not bad for $80, good amp for a budget setup. Would push something like a Sundown Ev4 @ 1 ohm pretty well.
Cool amp for low $, but you got me hooked on the D4S amps. Very happy with them.
12hrs later the amp is unavailable 😂
For 80.00 it’s perfect for any teenagers first install. They blow it up, they can’t get mad they can afford another one.
Love the videos on cheapos lol also loved the adding the wiring for ohm loads 😊😊
Still have an Audiobahn amp that works! It's a 4 channel flame series. I used it up until recently when I replaced it with the Recoil amps. I amp impressed with Recoil BTW! I have a mono block and a 4 channel.
i still have one too.. but it long blew out.. have it in my garage on the shelf..so pretty in all chrome .. i never tossed it
@@PopePlatinumBeats I think the only reason mine still works is because it's a 4 channel and never really pushed hard.
I have first gens.(black heatsinks) before the flames 2600 & 4400 in my show car still work like a champ.
@@4BillC I give mine hell every summer lol.
I had one of the flame series amps and two of the aluminum’s 12s! Bangin back in 2001
Besides color this amp reminds me of Rockford prime series amps
In the late 90's/early 2000's this brand was decent enough. I think I had a sub, an active crossover and possibly an amp
Love the heat map!
So just to start with Audobon is still a very good quality set up to buy however, it tells you on the box and everywhere else that you need to install some sort of ventilation or a fan to keep the amp cool and back in the day you had to put fans on every amp you bought it would get hot and go into protection mode. I have no problem on cost me $150 that is throwing out 1000 Watts.
Iused to be one of those guys who knew nothing of ohm loads and just a few years ago i realized, i really used to run my old pyramid amps on 1 ohm or less because everything was wire parallel for me..😅
Bro said the white glove is for after you EAT YO FRENCH FRIES 😂🍟
I always enjoy watching your tests!
How did you set up your lab for sound, or do your neighbors hate you?
listen i had a 2000 kia sephia with a audiobahn 10 inch sub and amp lmao i couldnt afford kicker atm this was 2006. now all i use is kicker
Love it thanks for the videos, would love too see some headuniit output clames and the most efficient unit U can find
Audiobahn Flame-Q subs were pretty good back in the day.
LOL! Rename that segment! "Do it make da lab rattle doe?"
Just checked Amazon sold out but they did have a massive amp advertisement coincidence im sure
Remember getting a white glove and license plate from m.a. audio amplifier in the early 2000s
Holy 💩 Audiobahn is still in business? Can’t believe it made rated power and then some to boot. I’d say that’s a steal for 79 bucks but with a choke that gets that hot, I don’t see it being very reliable.
had an Audiobahn amp long ago, it was decent.
Hey Big D love your videos bud. Would you by any chance have a list of all the amps you test on a spreadsheet somewhere? I would love to know which amps reach their rated power and at what efficiency. Keep up the great the work.
That would be a long spreadsheet. 13 years….
@@RealPivotTV yes but would be really useful for comparing amp performance. You can filter the info in all sorts of useful ways too. Plus it would be a great way of backing up information other then in video format.
@@Ray-uc8ij I didn’t say it wouldn’t be helpful it would be the holy grail of lists I just said it would be super long…. :)
@BassDad that's what she said 😮😂
Audiobahn has many product lines overseas. Even DSP's & headlights
I had that same issue, after I had ordered a Driven By DB Drive DX65 ; 6.5 subwoofer.
I was a big fan of Audiobahn back in the early 2000s i had 2 12s 800w (i think) powered by........ The original JL 500. 1 monoblock. had that in a hatchback back and it was Stuuuuupid loud.
I've still got 2 Audiobahn 12s from 1999😆👍
The white glove is hilarious!
That’s really good for $80. 1000w for under $100 these days are amazing. I’m so glad it doesn’t cost much to make a good sounding system on a budget.
That Massive is so fkn cool I want one so bad.
Hey big D I was wondering... Do your neighbors complain a lot about your recording of the Bass?
I still have two Audiobahn 12's in one of my cars...powered by some old hifonics AB amps lol
Damn I wasn't expecting it to even get close to rated power. Not bad at all.
0:51 DAaauuuummm!!!! I didn't know about that. Lol
I was one of the first people around my way to discover massive audio when everybody else was paying top dollar for Sundown not that these methods are cheap but they're buying Sundown and the other company that are totally totally outrageously priced I'm sure they're good I think they're called Death bounce or something but I have the Sumo XL I've had the angry hippos and I have a shitload of massive Subs in my basement they hit ridiculously hard even the entry level I believe they were 1250 max 750 RMS apiece or even less than that I had just two tens at one point and they hit just as hard as my JL Audio W3 the massive models that I had our the best budget banger on my opinion
Murdered out?😂😂 Keeping it classy!
Literally just bought the last one before the endof the video ill cancel if big d disapproves. The red matches my ds18 highs amp 😊
Love the videos brother the comedy is really cool too lol
I remember audiobaun from back in the day had 2 flame 12s inverted with the flame amp then the amp blew so I got an alpine v12 amp and they blew so I got 2 15 inch kickers
Could you tets more audiobanhn products? I'm from Mexico, I really appreciate your videos.
12:44 Livin On The Edge!!!! Lol
Nice for the price 👍
For $79 that ‘s definitely a gem.
Very close in similarity to a power acoustik razor as far as the guts go. Similar in power too.
This is definitely! Not a Mickey mouse program! LOL keep up the good work
Williston I have a Brax NOX4B amp you should make a video and test. I'd be willing to send to you. Top of the line amp, would be a cool video.
I remember buying a pair of Flame Q's instead of a pair of Rockford Fosgate HX2 Power 12's. Biggest regret of my life and I broke my back and lost an arm!
The $80 is well worth it and the hz is perfect and ideal
